The guide then took our Singapore travelers on a scenic drive of approximately 60 km, lasting about 1 hour and 20 minutes, to the center of Lhasa near Barkhor Street, where they stayed at the Shambhala Hotel we had booked, which has oxygen in the rooms.

It is recommended to take three pills three times daily after meals.

The Singapore-to-Tibet clients then visited Potala Palace, which involved considerable stair walking, so they brought oxygen along, which helped significantly.

The primary reason for selecting Pelber as an overnight stop, despite some travelers' decision to proceed directly to the Mount Everest base camp in a single day, is to acclimate to the altitude gradually by advancing slowly.

However, they can still enjoy views of Mount Everest from the base camp on the north face at 5200 meters near the Rongbuk Monastery. 

From Gawu La Pass, officially known as Kyu Wu Kya Pass, they arrive in Tashizom Town. Here, they switch from the tourist vehicle to an eco-friendly, non-polluting bus that takes them to the Everest Base Camp, a journey of about 1-2 hours.

Adventure of a lifetime: I found Tibettravelers through IG and fell in love with all the beautiful photos. I contacted Tenzin, and he was quick to respond. He planned a 10-day itinerary to Tibet with 1 day extension for the four of us. As soon as we reached Chengdu, Tenzin greeted us with our permit and explained the trip to us. He answered all our queries and assured us that all would be taken care of.

We were greeted by a friendly and warm guide, Abu. Abu was knowledgeable and made sure we were comfortable throughout the journey. He went out of his way to find mountain sickness pills and even brought us to a clinic to check our health when we had mountain sickness in Lhasa. When we were at Mt. Everest Base Camp, he kept us warm and checked the rooms to ensure there was oxygen. We can't thank Abu enough for his dedication and passion in his job. We have learned so much about the history and culture of Tibet. Thank you, Abu. We really appreciate your service.

Awesome Tibet Adventure: We are a group of four friends looking to be enthralled by the cultural and rugged beauty of Tibet, and enthralled we were! The palace and monastery visits were incredibly educational. Yamdrok and Namtso Lakes were gorgeous, and the Everest Base Camp was exceptionally hypnotic.

All these wouldn’t be possible without the expert facilitation by our tour agent, Tenzin, who kept in touch throughout our adventure, and who also assigned a caring, patient, and engaging guide, Abu, and a skillful driver, Kelsang. The latter expertly navigated us safely through winding roads and under varying weather conditions.

We are irrevocably grateful to have Abu as our guide. He helped us ease through our altitude sickness, which was an integral part of the whole trip. We were able to reach higher altitudes and see the beauty of Everest and the gorgeous lakes with his care and encouragement. We definitely cherished the bond we had formed with him as we meandered through our days in Tibet.

It has really been a great adventure for all of us, one that we would look back on with awe and fondness. Tibet Travelers has certainly delivered - trustworthy, reliable, and flexible in its facilitation to suit our needs, for instance, with regard to food.
